I asked for the photos.

Good day sir,

I'm interested in the 67. Could you please send me some good photos of the cowl trim tag and the engine block stamps.

Thank you.

We'll see what happens.

Sent me this. Seems like I've seen this photo in another for sale post.

Still waiting on an engine stamp.

Somethings odd; I just tried to message him again on ebay but the user account is gone. Really odd is that the car is still listed.

Sauron, I saw their ad, and their stuff looks good. But I decided a direct hand off to Joe and zero chance for any shipping company to destroy or lose it was worth the time. Gas money is a push as well. Also, I was repeatedly reminded again how much I would never want to live in or near California.  I’ll post a follow up when I get it back.

I know the feeling. Left in 86 and never thought about returning.

The info on my car is in my sig, but it's an 11B LOS convertible if it matters.

I wonder if the paper is normally under the plastic part in question and my car is actually missing it?

I can't testify to the accuracy of this; I've only had the car for about 3 years.

Video of the material.

So the car is "ALL" word of mouth by a pervious owner who says the guy he bought it from told him it was such and such, with no paperwork to prove any of it?

It's more like paper than plastic?

I happen to have my column out right now if you need measurements of it.

General Discussion / Re: 67 RS/SS w/AC blower motor wire
« on: September 18, 2023, 06:55:33 PM »
There is a discussion of the orange wire on a 1967 Camaro with a/c on the website below:

https://www.camaros.net/threads/orange-wire.41053/

There's a discussion about the 69 AIM and the orange wire being bundled up and taped to the AC control wires.

So, the does let me know the orange wire was on every car AC equipped or not.

I'm also being told GM cut the orange wire on 67s with AC.

I bet there are survivors out there that have it both cut and rolled and taped.

At the top of C60 E2 sheet in the AIM, at center under item #4 TAPE, there is a note B to coil and tape a production blower motor wire, to the harness.  Is that the wire you are looking at?

I see that now but I have multiple questions here.

That page shows a 6cyl and the location where the orange wire comes out of the firewall is not the harness I'm talking about.

However, it would seem reasonable the same would be done on a v8 car.

I'm beginning to think 67 AC cars would of had the heat only orange wire taped back up on the harness. No one of any authority has said this.

If anyone has a 67 factory AC survivor car and has time could you check for the orange wire that runs down to the starter and see if the wire is still there. If so, how was it handled.

Thanks for any help.

To add a little more context to my question.

I've attached few more photos.

My old engine harness that runs down to the starter has a cut orange wire that I believe would be used for the blower in a non AC car.

Likewise, the new harness has this orange wire that isn't used on AC cars and I'm not sure if the factory just terminated the wire or if there were two different harnesses used on non AC vs AC cars.

The other photos shows the wires that are used for the blower motor on AC cars and they come from a different harness.

If anyone has any suggestions, I'm open to hear them.

General Discussion / 67 RS/SS w/AC blower motor wire

Good day,

I've got a 67 RS/SS with AC and my question deals with blower motor wiring.

On a non AC car there is an orange wire that is part of the engine harness that runs to the blower motor. On an AC car those wires are part of AC harness.

Does the engine harness on an AC car still have the orange wire or is it omitted when the harness is built.? If they use the same harness was anything done to the orange wire to terminate it?

I've looked in the AIM and it does show the orange wire routing and UPC 12 A9 shows the non AC wiring and UPC C60 refers to E1-7 for AC cars. E1 shows the AC.

I've attached a non AC pic to show the wire in question. I am aware that the wire in the photo isn't routed correctly. :) not my car

On my AC car the orange non AC wire was cut near the starter. I believe the harness to be original to the car.

I've got an AAW replacement and it has the orange wire on it. I'm just not sure what to do with it.
